SPIRITUAL LAWS.
More Important than Those Re-
lating to Social Life.

More Important than Those Re.
lating to Social Life.
At st. Paul's Episcopal church Rev.
Mr.. Haskins took for his text yesterday
morning the fifth verse of the tenth
chapter Second Corinthians: Casting
down imaginations and every high thing
that exalteth itself against the knowledge
of God, and bringing into captivity every
thought to the obedience of Christ"
The main object of the discourse derived
from the meaning of the text was to
show that humanity should obey the
spiritual laws as we'll as those which
regulate social life. The sayings of st.
Paul are not merely poetical, but they
are the truth, and as such we should
give them great consideration. Man is
a portion Of the Divinity, and the holy
scripture defines the extent Of his divin-
itv. Every conception we have of his
imperfections may be true, but if we
take the scripture as guide, sin is not
necessary part of mans imperfections.
Dogs are not anything but dogs and
horses are nothing but horses. and as
such their highest aspirations 60 no
further than the desire to be treated
kindly. There is no heaven for them
except in kind treatment. A man
who does not rise higher in his desires
than o pleasureable existence does
not belong to the civilized world; but for
a acivilized man there is future existence,
which is of far more Importance to him
than this worlds pleasure. The path
way of the Christian is that which leads
to eternal happiness, and the existence
of Divine conceptions of that state is
proof Of Gods goodness in furnishing ia

rncta in Repiy to Falsehood.

The Nashville american sees fit to re-
mark that "it has been part OF the settled
policy of the political party which repre-
sents a majority Of the northern people to
throw every obstacle In the way and use
every possible means to keep northern men
and northern capital out Of the southern
states How well they have succeeded In
this may be judged from the fact that the
people Of the north have never had until
quite recently the faintest conception OF the
progress made by the south since the war;
The improvement Of the south is not to be
determined simply by the comparatively
recent movement in the development of our
iron industries. The recuperation from the
ruin and waste Of war is a part of the south's
Improvement"
This is false in every particular, so false
that the utmost ingenuity could not make
verbal change which would render II more
untruthful. "The settled policy Of the
party which represents majority OF the
northern peoplen has been and is and ever
will be to secure, in all the states, the as.
tendency of those principles which under
lie our system Of government. The Repub-
lican party believes there can be no real,
permanent prosperity in any state or section
where the fundamental law of the land is
nulllGed by public opinion and the ballot is
practically denied to any ella IS OF those citl-
zens to whom 1t belongs. The Republican
party holds to the belief that this republic
cannot be maintained on fraudulent basis;
that such Collections" as are held In nun.
Der of states vitiate the national govern
ment In all It's departments, and must, in
the end, wreck the entire structure unless
they can be superseded by honest elections.
1t is for the safety Of capital, the develop
ment Of industrial resources, the improve
ment Of business, the general prosperity Of
all the people Of all sections that the Re-
publican party desires the establishment OF
those conditions under which alone pros.
perity is possible.
II is not true-it sfalse-that obstacles
have been thrown by the Republican party
| In the way Of the south or that means have
been used to prevent northern men from
investing In southern enterprises. But 1t 4:
true that, In the years that have followed
| the war period, northern men who had
bought lands in the south and settled there
were driven out by relentless persecution
This naturally deferred others from migrat.
ing toward the gulf. For the past ten
years the daily, weekly, and monthly press
of the north has made speciality of boom
ing the business revival in the south, and
II the editor of the american does not
know this to be true he has neglected his
exchange table.
About year ago distinguished south
ern senator said in private conversation
hence we cannot call his name-that the
soldity Of the south must be maintained.
"lf 1t shall become necessary" he added,
"to employ in Tennessee the means that
have been used in Mississippi and else
where, they will be employed there, for we
shall keep the south solid.n
Is that policy necessary to the promotion
OF prosperity in the south?

The Tobacco Tax.

Prof. Puryear has paper in the current
number Of the american Farmer In which
he discusses the internal revenue system.
The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, is not prepared
to indorse all OF the professors assertions,
but finds good deal Of truth well stated
In portions Of the article, especially those
which treat Of the tobacco tax The pro-
lessor, who has eIiaantlu stnhiah- tho sah-
ject with mucn carS, hnds that
There are three elements In the selling price
OF manufactured tobacco One is the tax, and
that is constant. The manufacturer must, of
course, get that back when he sells. The Sec
ond is the cost of manufacture, and that within
very narrow limits, is also constant, and this,
too, he must get back when he sells. The third
is the cost OF the leac-the money the farmer
gets-and this is variable. The whole pressure
oftrade and competition bears down on the
only elastic element in the price of manu-
factured tobacco; and 1t is at this point, and
this only, that the farmer is concerned.
There is not the least doubt that the pro-
ducer Of the raw material is the chief suf-
ferer from this excise. But there is another
evil that is well worthy Of consideration.
The professor is correct in the statement
that by the operation of the internal rev.
erue laws only strong capitalists can en-.
gage in the manufacture OF tobacco. BE.
fore box can be shipped, the stamps must
be applied, the tax paid. Men Of small
means can't raise these heavy taxes In ad
vance of sales. They must forego the bust
ness and leave 1t to few capitalists. Even
, under the most favorable circumstances,
when the raw article is offered for sale
the buyers are few, the bidding languid
and prices, of course, are low. 1t is no,
sound public policy to bar men Of small
means out of any legitimate business.
"But worse than all this" says Prof
Pury ear, "may happen and does happen
The rich few, who manufacture tobacco
can easily combine against the poor many
who have the article for sale. The farmers
have no redress. Il few, blGated with
wealth, purchase by virtue OF the advan-
tage which the law gives them the tobacco
crops at prices but little above, and fire.
quently less and largely less than the cos
Of production. The tobacco crops thui
make the rich few richer, and leave the pool
many, who produce the crop, as poor as be
fore and often poorer"
We commend these statements to thu
serious consideration of the lawmakers OIL
Capitol Hill.

Or very large number OF papers on our
weekly exchange list, the Greensboro
North State, published by Messrs. Keogh 81
Boyd, Greensboro, N c., and the Union
Republican, published by Mr.. J.W. Goslen,
Winston, N. c., are among the most
valued. Both Of these excellent papers are
doing grand work in building up the old
North State. In the late election in that
state both did most valuable service to the
Republican party, and aided In no small
degree to the grand result that was
achieved. Not another state In the Union
surpasses North Carolina In the advantages
she offers TO settlers. Her climate cannot
be equaled, and her material advantages,
together with her nearness to all the great
markets OF the country, are advantages
that require only to be known to be
appreciated. And nothing has retarded
her material progress but the most de-
spicable Bourbon rule that ever cursed
any state. Now there is a good prospect
that all that will be remedied, and when
that does happen the grand old state will

bloom and blossom as the rose, and her fer
tile hills and valleys will teen with great
and prosperous people. The outrages upon
tire ballot box that have made Mississippi,
South Carolina, Texas, and some of the
other southern states stink in the nostrils Of
the whole people have been almost un-
known In North Carolina. And when
North Carolina ceases sending to the ma
tional capitol graveyard politicians, and
when she sends such men as Webster, Pear
son, DR.. York, ex-Gov. Brogden, Pritchard,
Ewart, Turner, aud others, then she will
take her proper place among the sisterhood
Of states.
